Report Indicates Stronger Market For Your LOFT

your home and rising pricesWhether you are trying to sell your LOFT or are hoping to buy, the latest report from Fannie Mae’s Economic & Strategic Research Group shares a positive outlook.

The Group report indicates a marked increase in consumer spending since 2010 and a “modest re-acceleration” is predicted for the rest of 2013 due to a stronger labor market and improving financial and housing market conditions. Growth of 2.2% in housing and market conditions for 2013 is further anticipated, which is good news for your LOFT.

According to Fannie Mae Chief Economist Doug Duncan, a sustainable pace is continuing in the housing market, and should “act as a tailwind for the economy throughout the year and into 2014.” The Economic & Strategic Research Group cited continued increased LOFT demand as a possible significant contributor to growth in 2014.

Duncan went on to state, “Our May forecast predicts that the second half of 2013 will be a little stronger than the first half, despite the slowdown during the past couple of months.”
